Covid-22

Catch-22 during the coronavirus pandemic: if you stay at home, you have no money to feed your family and pay the bills; and if you go out and work, you risk your life and those of your loved ones, especially if some members are prone to contracting the virus due to a poor health condition.

Adios and his wife, both out of work, are in debt and face eviction at the end of the month, with the family of five trying to keep their baby who suffers from a rare disease condition that requires round-the-clock care at home instead of moving to a homeless shelter; however, if they go out to work, the odds of them infecting their little one are pretty high—they’re stuck in a Covid-22 situation.

🦤 🔢

Short for “Dodo Math.” Dated math topics, questions, or heuristics that may still interest some curious or eccentric recreational mathematicians or math educators, who in turn might share their “new knowledge” with a geeky or gray-haired audience keen to learn about the mathematics of yesteryear.

Square rooting and finding logarithms with a slide rule and on an abacus are two 🦤 🔢 lessons popular among symbol-minded senior citizens.

Carnivak-Cov

Sputnik V for animals, which unprovenly generates antibodies in dogs, cats, foxes, and mink, by protecting them from Covid-19 for at least half a year, and prevents viral mutations from developing.

Just as Sputnik V was the world’s first registered half-baked Covid-19 vaccine for humans, Carnivak-Cov is the world’s first registered half-trialed Covid-19 vaccine for animals—a double first for Russia, as it pursues its vaccine diplomacy in the developing world.

Spotifying Trump’s Lies

When some Trumpreneurs are entertaining the idea of making the Pinocchio-in-Chief’s manifold lies available on Spotify in different music or podcast formats so that they sound pleasing or soothing to the ears of millions of ultra-MAGA cult members.

Guesstimate how much royalty creators could be raking in every month by Spotifying Trump’s lies in different languages.

Killer App

When at the click of a link sent via an app, someone’s digital device is virally infected or disabled, often with the terrorist sender or hacker able to retrieve the data stored on the recipient’s phone, tablet, or watch.

After John unsuspiciously clicked on a link in a WhatsApp fake member’s message, no one in the chat group anticipated that the killer app would facilitate the transmission of the Russian virus at such a lethal speed, which wiped out the data stored on all twelve members’ devices.

Covid-👻

When diehard party-goers insist on attending a Halloween party in the midst of the pandemic, because they conspiratorially claim that the coronavirus is dead scared of ghosts and spirits here on Earth and in Hell.

To fight Covid-👻, both QAnonists and alt-right Trumpists are reluctantly wearing “frightening” masks this Halloween to scare off the Wuhan virus.

Covid-🇦🇺

When Australia finally comes to terms that its zero Covid strategy to contain the coronavirus pandemic is a mere illusion, which is politically laughable considering that the country has the lowest vaccination rate among the developed countries.

Thanks to “dose sharing” with friendly developed countries, no one expects the land of kangaroos to fail in bringing down the number of Covid-🇦🇺 infections, thus putting an end to recurring lockdowns before the festive season.
